As an embodied subject, the human person has inherent limitations: he has facticity, he is a spatial-temporal being, and his body is intermediary. The presence of inherent limitations imposed by being an embodied subject may make us think that our life is very restricting. However, it is also these limitations that make our lives more interesting and challenging because these offer us the possibility of overcoming or transcending them.

I know to my self that im not good enough but im willling to learn yasss asss of i can do jumping trolling koShort Speech on Save Trees and Save Planet EarthThis form of Speech On Save Trees And Save Planet Earth In English is useful for students in grades 4-7, as they can speak about the topic in a short time using simple words for everyone to understand.Good morning everyone, I ABC (mention your name) feel very fortunate to get this opportunity on this prestigious platform to speak on an important topic: Save Trees And Save Planet Earth. This planet has seen so many inventions and modern technologies that it is taking over, but none of it can do the work of the natural resources.Trees are one of the most important natural resources that give life to every living thing. We are so heavily dependent on this natural resource and in return, we are only destroying them by cutting them and harming the planet. The trees selflessly provide so many benefits to humans and humans selfishly repay this debt by cutting down trees. If this practice of deforestation continues and people don’t realize the need to give back to the planet by planting trees then there won’t be a planet to live on anymore. Trees protect the natural environment by balancing the pollution levels and purifying such harmful air that has been created due to manmade activities. It acts as a home and shelter to so many animals, helps in raising fertility of the soil naturally and we only cause harm to it. Let us all pledge to not continue this harmful activity and take the route of afforestation. Start by planting trees at home and in your neighborhood. Do it for the benefit of the environment and planet even if your efforts go unnoticed. Spread awareness about the importance of planting trees and start early. Save trees and save the planet.Thank you.Short Speech on Save Trees and Save Planet EarthThis form of Speech On Save Trees And Save Planet Earth In English is useful for students in grades 4-7, as they can speak about the topic in a short time using simple words for everyone to understand.Good morning everyone, I ABC (mention your name) feel very fortunate to get this opportunity on this prestigious platform to speak on an important topic: Save Trees And Save Planet Earth.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
Chapter 3 - Method of Moral and Social Philosophical Inquiry
1. Chapter 3
Method of Moral and Social
Philosophical Inquiry
“For want of a nail, the shoe is lost;
For want of a shoe, the horse is lost;
For want of a horse, the rider is lost.”
- George Herbert
(1593 – 1633)
I. Postulates of Moral and Social Philosophy
A postulate is a truth that has been proven by one science and has been taken into or used by
another science.
1. Human reason is a reliable and trustworthy source or instrument of human knowledge that is true
and certain;
2. An infinitely intelligent, good, and just God exists;
3. Man has free will and is, therefore, responsible for his human actions;
4. Man has a rational soul and has intellect whose object is the truth and a will whose object is the good;
5. Man is a social being and has relatedness as his essence.
II. The Nature of Philosophical Inquiry
Nature of Inquiry in General
According to Robert O. Johann, S.J.,
inquiry is man’s effort to integrate his
experience as a responsible agent.
“Experience” is understood as the interactive
process whereby the human self is in dynamic
relation with the whole range of the other.
The ground and condition of inquiry is the fact that man is a responder, that is, he is able to give
a fitting answer to actions upon him. In this sense, experience is not something going on within the self,
something private and subjective.
Within this process, man functions as a responder. This notion of responder has its roots in that
objective awareness, that presence of the other as other that is characteristic of man. Unlike the brute
animal which lives ecstatically immersed in its environment which it carries along as a snail carries its
shell, man finds himself standing over against the environment with which the human situation and it
looks backward (remember the past) and forward (anticipates the future).
The starting point of inquiry is the problematic situation when past habits of dealing with reality
no longer suffice for the new situation. Inquiry is, therefore, the process by which the human person
transforms a problematic situation into a resolved one. It is not mere problem solving since it is concerned
with the enrichment of human life as a whole.
Robert O. Johann, S.J. - the
Professor of Philosophy, at
Fordham University in the Bronx,
New York and Fordham's
prominent Jesuit Philosopher.
2. III. The Context and Scope of Inquiry
Human experience is a shared experience, common and shared ways, beliefs, and practices of
dealing with the environment or human reality. The inquiry is shared or communal has a double
significance:
1. The value of tradition as shared is a matter of fact.
2. But, the adequacy of the content of tradition is a matter of intention.
Logically, it would follow that inquiry is not a finished fact but a continuing task. In short, inquiry
is historical and communal, evolutionary and developmental.
Common sense inquiry is subject to error and does not suffice. Scientific inquiry is instrumental
and looks at the world as means. Philosophic inquiry alone takes human life as an end and is concerned
with the quality of human life.
The difference of philosophical view is to be explained in terms of different backgrounds, biases
and preoccupations. To achieve unity in philosophical inquiry, what needed is integration through
personal and universal human reflection and communion.
IV. Modes of Inquiry
There are three steps in integrating human life as a whole:
1. Logic: thought must be theoretically coherent and self-consistent.
2. Phenomenology: action is the result of thought which has practical relevance.
3. Meta-pragmatics: thoughtful action must be in the service of human growth.
Task of Philosophy
1. Formulation of a comprehensive human ideal which is the achievement of universal personal
community.
2. Criticism not only of common sense beliefs but also of philosophy itself.
The test of the validity of any philosophy is its contribution to the wholeness, coherence,
reasonableness, and satisfactoriness of human life.
A practical philosophy whose aim is life’s reconstruction and the achievement of human
development we shall call ontological pragmatism.
Conclusion
What does it mean to inquire or to knowat all? For ontological pragmatism, to know is not simply
to think about, to interpret, or explain reality but to deal or do something with or transform reality. Thus,
to know justice is to be just, to know freedom is to be free, and to know love is to love. The only philosophy
that is practical is one that enriches human life immensely. Practical philosophy then is human reflection
on human experience in the service of human growth.
3. V. Method of Ethical Inquiry
Applying the method of ontological pragmatism to moral theory, the epistemological problem of
ethics is: What does it mean to know moral value? If to know reality is to deal with reality, then to know
moral value is to realize moral value, to be moral is to love reality of being. In short, to know good is to
do good.
Two Basic Approaches to Moral Theory or Ethics.
1. Phenomenology can be takenboth as an attitude:“just look and see what is there” or as a method
of accurate description of what is directly given in experience (phenomena).
2. Metaphysics is reflection on the data of human experience to discover is human meaning.
The method of our ethical inquiry is both phenomenological and metaphysical.
It is the human meaning of human behavior that has moral significance.
The purpose of ethics is to explicitate what is implicit; to exteriorize what is interior in man’s moral
experience.
